Abstract

Abstract

Bacteriophages possess the ability to infect and kill bacteria and have now been applied in various oral diseases, providing new insights for the prevention and treatment of oral diseases. They are expected to become a novel biological antibacterial agent for treating oral diseases. This paper comprehensively discusses the application of bacteriophages in oral medicine from six aspects: the concept and application prospects of bacteriophages, four common infectious diseases of the oral cavity and their pathogenic bacteria, existing treatment methods, and the application and outlook of bacteriophages in these diseases. Lay a theoretical basis for the clinical implementation of phage therapy.
